JAKARTA - Indonesian women's singles, Putri Kusuma Wardani, learned many lessons after losing to the second seed, An Se Young, in the last 16 of the Korea Open 2023, Thursday, July 20. In that match, Putri lost two straight games, 7-21, 12-21 after playing for 33

Putri said that she learned from An who played calmly, as well as about the placement of the ball and effective attacks and made it difficult for the opponent.

"I learned how he was able to reverse the ball several times which I think is already a responsibility. In fact, not only reversing it, but also making it difficult," said Putri in a written statement released by PBSI.

The player who is familiarly called Putri KW emphasized that he wanted to get up immediately. He will also train harder after his failure at the Korea Open 2023 in order to compete with level An.

"I have to train harder to catch up to his level (An Se-young)," he said as quoted by Antara.

Furthermore, Putri added, An is a young player who has a lot of experience and plays in public himself.

Putri assessed that she should be able to appear loose and without the burden of fighting the world number two women's singles.

"An Se-young has a lot of experience, so in the match I was under a lot of pressure. Even though I should have appeared without a burden because he was above me but I couldn't even let go," said Putri.
